October 8, 2023

I know passwords and remembering I.D.'S are a pain in the butt but when you are in id.me it is so quick and secure.

To secure for its own dam good.
November 7, 2023

It takes at least an hour to reset my password every time I use this account. It's a real pain in the $#*!. It's a real shame I have to do this. See. You come up with this sight that is supposed to verify who I am to other entities. So now ther websight use your services to and my drivers license and every other form of ID out there. For a 15% discount the cell phone company needs a picture of state ID from my cell phone. I can remember the ID me password. I don't use it for years and now taxes and even the phone company uses it. Sucks remembering the information to sign in. Don't like having to share this much information at all. I can see how people older than myself get pissed and give up on your service. Your service only makes it harder for people to do business. I don't believe for a minute that your so secure that your data bases have not already been hacked. Your service is a false sence of security.

Absolute train wreck
November 7, 2023

Beware that you might be told your email is already associated with an account but then be told your email isn't associated with an account if you try to retrieve your username. Only option was to completely delete everything which had a 24 hour delay. Still didn't fix it. This was a nightmare.
